A
school, not like any other
school. This
school is the first
school in Florida to have the I.B. program. A program, which, super smart kids go to so that they can be better than everyone else. Over 50% of the I.B. population is Asian, this is because Asians are smarter than the white and black folk, unless you are French. An interesting fact of the students of the I.B. is that 1/4 of them consider suicide from the work and stress overload, testimonies have stated that children can possibly get over 9 hours of school work a day. Of this 25% of students contemplating suicide, about half of them go through with it, so they don't have to go through the hassle of completing high
school.
St. Pete High
School was founded by the all famous, Ponce De Leon during his early explorations. This is where the Spanish architecture came from. Also, after Leon founded and supported the
school, he left for Cuba. Weeks later, he got a message that students were killing themselves from the work overload. Leon, realizing what he created and how many lives he may take, killed himself in 1521.
But once you overlook the sad history of the
school, you will feel proud if you can make it through, your life will be successful, but since all your friends killed themselves, guess you won't have anyone to boast about your paycheck to.
My friend
Eric got to Junior year in St. Pete High then killed himself. Jamie almost made it through St. Pete High, but killed herself right before the Senior I.B. exams. I got through the
damn school and own my own plantation.
